In Donkey Kong Land III, she plays differently than she does in Donkey Kong Country 3. First, she has an unlimited water supply, and she can spray water in any level she appears in. Second, she does not run from mice at all. Lastly, she cannot drag barrels in her trunk like in Donkey Kong Country 3.

In Donkey Konga, she appears at the bottom of the screen, dancing to the beat of the music played.

Ellie was also going to be one rideable creatures in the now-apparently cancelled game, Donkey Kong Racing.
